Seattle Parks and Recreation purchased property at 4801 SW Charlestown Street to provide additional space for the West Seattle community. They are seeking public input at a meeting on Tuesday, April 30 at Dakota Place Park 4301 SW Dakota from 6:30pm to 8pm.
They will present park concept designs. Public input shaped the direction of the three designs that will be presented. Following the collection of input at this meeting they will develop a preferred design concept. That design will be presented in early summer 2019.
The free parking in the West Seattle Junction has to change to a paid format and development of the land the parking lots occupy is inevitable. Those are the primary things the West Seattle Junction Association (WSJA) and their landlord the West Seattle Trusteed Partners (WSTP) agree on.

One of the key elements identified by the Governor’s Task Force in saving our Southern Resident Orcas is not only just saving our salmon runs but the critical need to increase the vitality and abundance of salmon runs, especially Chinook Salmon.
The primary food source, almost exclusively for orca is Chinook Salmon, which the Green-Duwamish Watershed is home to all 5 species of salmon, including Chinook.
The Task Force identified restoring and increasing salmon habitat as one of the 3 primary actions required to save our orca and where individuals can make a positive difference in the orca’s survival and in improving the overall health of our watersheds.
Orca, are only one of many wildlife that are dependent on salmon for their survival.
If you’ve ever been curious about a helicopter flying overhead you might be surprised to know that it’s often King County’s Guardian One, part of the King County Sheriff’s Office.

But that mission’s future is anything but certain.
The King County Sheriff’s Office (KCSO) portion of the General Fund is 21 percent, the largest single component but the Air Support Unit (ASU) which has 5 full time employees gets a budget of just under $600,000 a year, despite costing nearly $800,000 annually. To meet the shortfall the unit relies on a number of grants.
